Sorry to resurect an old thread here, but i have had a similar diagnosis on my Tdci 130 (53 Ghia-x). Don't want to get rid of car really as it's fully loaded with dvd's etc and is great for the kids and my 35 mile commute, but garage wants extortionate money to rectify problem.
Can anyone point me in the direction of special tools, and re-coding equipment? I live in Warwickshire and commute to Derby week days so Swad diesel in pretty much en-route...
